  1. Moses, Thanks. That's good advice. The VSS is interesting to me. I found that if I was able to get up to around 50mph (down hill) it would upshift to high gear (OD?) and I could cruise at 60 to 70 no problem-so it seemed that vehicle speed was somehow related to shift problem. I drove from SF bay to North Tahoe. Going up hill if I had to downshift manually when I went back to OD the upshifts happened as long as speed was sufficient. The really odd thing that happened when I got off the freeway was that it didn't want to come out of gear when I approached a stop. Luggin motor as if it was a manual tranny in high gear. I popped in neutral to keep it running. Then it was back to the same trouble when I got going again-no up ( or very delayed)shift in mid gear unless I could get up to speed. I was hoping to drive it back home to go to my tranny shop that did the seals and filter. That sounds ill advised. I could tow home or find a local shop to check it out. Do you know anyone in North Tahoe/Truckee area? I could take a look underneath if I knew what to look for. Thanks again, Fred
  2. I'm having a shifting problem with my 1990 f=150. I think the tranny shop said it's an E4OD. I had some seals and filter replaced a few months ago. Drove several thou miles with no trouble. Lately it started not shifting from 2nd to 3rd when it was cold. It seemed like it was in neutral-revved high without going anywhere- until it finally did shift. It's gotten worse the last couple of days and now it doesnt want to up shift. Can barely get past 35mph. Unfortunately Im 200 miles from home. Any suggestions?
